do not...

do not ever underestimate the art of origami..

it's not just about folding the damn paper..

it takes patience and endurance of a marathon athlete to produce a masterpiece,,

i started of last dec of 2010 if i'm not mistaken..

probably having a late teen/age crisis..

i decided that,,

oh hey,,i should find my niche..

something that i might be good at,,after hours or days of discovering perhaps..

so i turned to origami..

the 1st origami i did was the lotus flower..

it turned out..hmmm..not bad,,i'd say..

then..moved on to the jasmine flower..

OMG,,i took about,,i dunno,,i think if i summed up all the hours figuring out the foldings and etc..

it took pretty much like 2 hours..or more..

and i'm not talking about 2 hours straight!!

jeez,,i need a break..that's one hell of an art piece..

and i kinda nailed it at last and started to do lots of them,,

someone thought i was opening a business..

that indicates how good i am..hahaha..in ur face,,

unfortunately,,i completely forgot how to do it now..

so i just brag about nothing basically..whatever..

and,,

the mother of all origamis,,i'd like to called it..

the well known crane that looked like a bird,,

that was easy...anyone could pull that off i reckon,,if they learn how to make one..

then,,i stopped making origamis and the crane was the last origami i ever learnt,,

i'm not an origami devotee..i have a life to live...

now,,i'm trying to pick things up from where i left them..started watching origami videos ever since,,dang!!! it was hard..

i tell u,, those origami ppl are like paper ninjas..

in a nick of time,, the moment ur eyes are away from the screen,,

the paper is already in a totally different position..

i couldn't catch up..they are paper ninjas i tell you,,

i just have to slow mow the whole video..

but still...yeah,,i bet u know what i was gonna tell ya..

so, the most recent origami that i was working on is the firework..

it's sooo cool,,u could turn it and the shape changes..

i thought it would be awwh--sum if i nail that..

i looks like a 3d kaleidoscope..literally..i'm not lying,,

but it's so hard to put the pieces together..u need 12 sheets of the paper to do that..

so i gave up..

i dunno when's gonna be the next time i lay my hands on another origami paper..

i'm sure it's not gonna be anytime soon..

unless i have an origami tutor,,,which is nobody..

lastly,, thanks youtube for being one of my fav sites..

it's the best place to learn stuff for free..and it's legit..for real!!

but mostly..thanks to the generous ppl that upload those videos and spreading the love to the ppl worldwide.
